Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pull-out baskets, and in particular to a pull-out basket side panel structure. Background Technology

[0002] Pull-out baskets are primarily drawer-style storage baskets installed in kitchen cabinets for the categorized storage of tableware, kitchen utensils, condiments, and other items. The basic components of a pull-out basket include a base plate, front, back, left, and right side panels. With increasingly fierce market competition and rising production costs, how to reduce production costs while maintaining product quality to adapt to the changing environment and maintain core competitiveness is a pressing issue. Currently, pull-out basket side panels are mainly made from large aluminum profiles cut into hollow, one-piece aluminum panels, which are then installed on the base plate to form the basket. However, large aluminum profiles require integral forging, resulting in particularly high procurement costs, thus failing to effectively reduce production costs for businesses. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pull-out basket side panel structure that can effectively reduce the production costs of enterprises, thereby enhancing their core competitiveness.

[0004] The pull-out basket side panel structure of this utility model includes an outer side panel, an upper inner side panel, and a lower inner side panel. The upper inner side panel has a first "L"-shaped groove at the top along the horizontal direction, and a first groove and a second locking foot at the bottom along the horizontal direction, with the second locking foot located at the bottom of the first groove. The lower inner side panel has an inverted second "L"-shaped groove at the bottom along the horizontal direction, and a first locking foot that engages with the first groove and a second groove for the second locking foot to engage at the top along the horizontal direction at the top of the second groove.
